Purpose and fitment

The presented trunk lid is a body component dedicated to the rear section of the BMW 3 Series E90 generation after the facelift (LCI). Its placement in the rear area of the vehicle ensures proper trunk geometry, correct body line alignment, and compatibility with factory mounting points for hinges, the lock, and other hardware.

By using an original construction, key passive safety parameters and the structural rigidity of the rear body section are maintained, which is important both for daily use and in the case of post-accident repairs.

Black Sapphire Metallic paint finish

The trunk lid is finished in Black Sapphire Metallic - 475, a color characteristic of many BMW configurations. The metallic paint coating ensures visual consistency with the factory body paint, while the appropriate structure and color depth make it easier to match the component during body and paint repairs.

For users who own a vehicle in the same shade, using this trunk lid can reduce the scope of additional paint work, which translates into time and cost savings while maintaining a high-quality final result.

Technical characteristics and installation

The trunk lid belongs to the Trunk lids and rear parts category, meaning it has been designed for proper integration with the factory lock, actuators, wiring harness, and other rear body components. The design includes standard mounting points, making the installation process predictable for body shops or service centers specializing in the BMW brand.

As a used part, this component allows for an economical vehicle repair while maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications. In practice, this means better fitment with fenders, the bumper, and taillights compared to many non-original replacements.
